I'm mainly going to be responding to the OP because I can't be assed to read 30+ pages of thread.
I used to be a Christian and believe the same things you do, but after seeing all the little holes in my belief system and having people unable to fill in those holes with things that made sense I decided to become an atheist. A lot of the reason I was a Christian for so long was due to fear of burning in hell, but after seeing plenty of posts here disputing things such as this my worry has severely decreased.
There is no afterlife. Once we're dead we're dead. It'd be like being asleep.
